Iโve NEVER to this level! I find that Iโm more focused, I give others more grace, and I rest better because Iโm not glued to YouTube or Netflix while gorging myself on junk food. So glad Iโm a part of this journey!
Praise God for SEEK! I needed the whole 40 days. God has done so much to reset and strengthen my life. Praise God!
Almost to the end of week 3. Iโm learning self discipline, Gods love is not transactional , sacrifice requires transformation. Trusting God. Transformation for me my dear Father.
Woke up with/ praying great is the Lord's faithfulness. I can see the value of still having hope, faith even under challenges, being disciplined and God is still near. Lamenting, mourning can be and opportunity to see God.Brand new mercy
A caregiver/being a parent is challenging. I did kind things even though I have chronic pain sometimes. In-spite of the teen being unappreciative,nonchalant it 's God's inner peace and prayer that helps us. I am thankful.
Caring for a teen grandson can be hard.Fixed dinners & froze it. Though I am going through some chronic pain for an unknown disease. I had some one to come in and do some general cleaning. He is unthankful-attitude at times. silence is the key
I discovered excessive fees from my financial advisory firm and no refund was offered. I read Psalm 55 ("...But I call to God and the Lord saves meโ and prayed about it.โ Within minutes, the phone rang, and the firm agreed to refund my money!
After working on the presidential campaign, I took a leap of faith and moved to the DMV with only prayers. Now, Iโm stepping into a new journey at Howard University. This fast brought clarityโGodโs promises are real! Excited for whatโs next!
I questioned if I choose my Seek because itโs easy. Itโs not! I included no alcohol and itโs been a struggle but Iโve maintained. It does get harder, but through God, Iโm here for it. Prayer works and surely answered.
Thank you Pastor Wesley for your morning devotions/prayersโฆ.I am sharing them with my 89 year old mother and she is being blessed by them too. Also, thank you for reminding us to thank God for the little thingsโฆTo God be the Glory๐๐พ๐๐พ๐
I am doing a modified version of the fast by refraining from food for 16 hours; limiting social media to :30 mins or less for news, no posting and TV is much less. I enjoy the 7am prayer call, playlist and emails. My personal prayer time has grown.
Greetings my Brothers and Sisters in Christ Jesus. Received a cancer diagnosis. Thank God that my prayer life included fasting and that I was not spiritually anemic! "It is well, you will live and not die" Thank you Father. Grace and Mercy
Psalm 32:6 in The Message translation: These things add up. EVERY ONE OF US NEEDS TO PRAY; when all hell breaks loose and the dam bursts we'll be on high ground, untouched.
Thanks be to God for being a part of SEEK25 because it's brought discipline of praying back into my life. Also, staying off Social Media, watching TV, spending habits and giving up certain foods. Hard but it's worth it. Amen. I
Dr. Bradley:
Your devotional message from trauma to tranquility was a beautiful and gentle reminder of how Jesus can touch the brokenness in our lives. It is pertinent that we, too, reach out and touch someone.
Blessings to you for the Word.
I look forward to seek every year. However, I wish we do seek more than one time every year๐๐ฝ
This year of Seek has been the most challenging by far due to where I am mentally and emotionally. Iโm struggling with direction and purpose and want quick relief from the pain. Right now the only thing I know to do is to keep going and not give up!
Thankful to GOD that our spiritual journey of fasting and prayer is giving life. Yet today while trying to watch the news for the first time I noticed that over 80% of the commercials are about food! The kind Not on our approved list. ๐ซmore news!
Seek 2025 has certainly been a bit of a challenge, especially going without coffee. Spending time with God has been priceless. So many things have clouded my ability to hear God. Starting my day with prayer and scripture has set a new tone for me.
This morning after I heard Pastor Wesley pray, I prayed. While reading my Bible and devotionals, my spirit prompted me to be aware of God's presence by fixing my eyes and heart on Jesus and to keep Him in the center of all that I do!
